He gave His life to free us from every kind of sin, to cleanse us, and to make us His very own people, totally committed to doing good deeds. Titus 2:14

Total commitment is a process which can only start with Jesus. To even begin to understand what commitment means as a child of God you must first understand what commitment means to the Father. ‘He gave His life to free us from every kind of sin, to cleanse us, and to make us His very own people, Read the rest of this entry →

‘The Word gave life to everything that was created,  and His life brought light to everyone’ John 1:4.

Secondly, to be filled with the life of Christ means to be filled with the Living Word of God. The Word of God is God Himself. John 1:1-5, ‘In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God. He existed in the beginning with God. God created everything through Him, and nothing was created except through Him. The Word gave life to everything that was created, and His life brought light to everyone. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness can never extinguish it’. When you chronicle this portion of scripture by the help of the Holy Spirit, you will get revelational knowledge of the Power that the Word carries. This same power is available to every Christian who is filled with the Living Word. You can only get filled with the Word by spending dedicated study time daily with the Word. However it does not just stop at studying, you must also begin to meditate on the Word and let it become your actions. Let it renew your thinking until your natural response to situations is in line with the Word of Life. There is no word of God without life and power. To be filled with the Living Word of God is to move around with raw power. You cannot live the life that God has promised you unless you are filled with the Living Word. Isaiah 40: 8 ‘The grass withers and the flowers fade, but the Word of our God stands forever.’ What is holding you back from experiencing the power in the Word? Every Word in the bible was birthed by the Spirit of God, ask Him and He will give you understanding.

Prayer: Father, I ask to be filled with Your Living Word so that I will become the full image of Christ Jesus in my immediate environment. Thank You Father.

‘Yes, I am the vine; you are the branches. Those who remain in Me, and I in them, will produce much fruit. For apart from Me you can do nothing… I have loved you even as My Father has loved Me. Remain in My love. When you obey My commandments, you remain in My love, just as I obey my Father’s commandments and remain in His love’. John 15:5,9 &10

There is a huge difference between going to Church and following Jesus. The fact that we are visible in Church and regularly attend meetings does not mean we are following Jesus. Serving in Church also is no guarantee we are following Jesus. Following Jesus means ‘remaining’ in Him; a choice to remain. Read the rest of this entry →

‘Look I stand at the door and knock. If you hear my voice and open the door, I will come in, and we will share a meal together as friends’. Rev.3:20 [NLT]

Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever. His promises are guaranteed. However, our response determines our feedback. In the above scripture for example, the Lord guarantees that He will stand at the door and knock and He will share a meal with you as a friend. But in between the first and the last Read the rest of this entry →
